How to Dress Like a Greaser
Greasers have an iconic look. Though they likely weren't actually called greasers until long after the 1950s, any modern audience can identify a greaser by the hair, the motorcycle, and the iconic greaser leather jackets. A greaser jacket is usually black, and is often in the style of a motorcycle jacket. Many greasers were influenced by celebrities like Elvis, who famously wore a jacket like the "Elvis" jacket in our collection.
To dress like a greaser, start with the greaser leather jacket, and then build the outfit from there. Wear comfortable, loose trousers or dark jeans, and a simple T-shirt. To complete the look, slick back your hair with pomade or jelly. There are many variations on the greaser style, so don't be afraid to get creative and mix-and-match clothing till you find the look you are going for!
